Who is /tv/ backing?

>>212869319 (OP)
Cillian Murphy

Somebody make an edit of him pointing a wand at his own head

Cillian Murphy would be an awful choice. That’s Tumblr-tier casting.
Matt Smith could work.
My inspired bit of casting has always been that it should be Jeremy Strong

either way, its not going to be as good as the movies

neither of them should accept it, its a rubbish part

Who am I backing? For no one to be trapped for 7 long years in the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises! Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though

"No!"

The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Both are solid choices.

oh fuck off dullest franchise is the better and more effortful repost

>>212869787
He was like a self-satire. An easy to get laughs is to do his bits like aaaAAAAVADAKEDAVRA in his retard voice

Matt Smith would look great hairless with lizard nostrils, and has the acting chops to pull it off. CM is the most overrated modern actor I've seen.

>>212869797
I hope you and baskin roberts die together in some kind of inferno

>>212869868
Yeah he would basically just do a variation of Scarecrow, not interested

>>212869455
meh cillian makes more sense. i think voldemort was supposed to be very handsome and charming before fucking up his face, cillian is close to that. Despite what people say, i see nothing handsome about matt smith, he's just weird looking

>>212869868
>has the acting chops to pull it off.
he would be wasted in the role because its so fucking lame.

>>212869334
Smith is already on HOTD, so Murphy

Please don’t cast Cillian. I actually like seeing him in movies and it would be a waste of his talent to do this shit.

Cillian Murphy would be the better actor. But because he's good I'd hate to see him star in pure slop like this. So I sacrifice the literal who from Doctor Who.

Cillian definitely could make better use of his talents.

>>212869820
Shut the fuck up you fucking faggot redditor. Your friends were BEGGING for the mods to ban me back then. It's only when you pleb faggots coped by calling it a meme did you start liking it

Smith is the uglier actor and I'm 100% sure Cillian would never devote his time to yearly slop.

>I am become he who must not be named, destroyer of mud bloods

YOU KILLING CURSED ME

>>212870069
Matt Smith has pura aura which is what makes him “attractive” and would translate better as Voldemort who is a charismatic
Cillian Murphy would do his usual “I’m a creepy guy who looks creepy” bit and wouldn’t have as much gravitas

>>212870397
I understand that matt smith might have some type of confidence that make him "attractive", but he's certainly not objectivelly handsome. Tom Riddle is multiple times described to have very good looks, whatever they do later for when he fucks ups his face they can do so with make up like the movies.

>>212869455
Smith is literally tumblr and reddit you fag

>>212869319 (OP)
0 chance Murphy is going to commit to an 8+ year project when he's at the absolute apex of his career and can pick and choose whatever he wants to star in.

>>212869521
Nah it'd be one of those
>I may be an inhuman soulless child murdering family line exterminating torturing cruel madman magical blood supremacist BUT I'M NOT A RACIST
Fuck me, there'll probably be a scene where Voldemort defends black Snape from muggle racism

>>212869621

>my le killing curse... didn't kill le baby?
>my le killing curse... killed me?
>my le killing curse... killed me again?

ENOUGH WITH THE STUNT CASTING

What about Bumpernick Cuminhersnatch?

>>212869319 (OP)
Murphy should be in that cast somewhere, but Smith is better for Voldemort. He's more uncanny. Neither of them are as good as fiennes though. Honestly the whole project feels like an exercise in futility, I don't even get why they're doing this, the movies aren't that old and they got it right the first time. The movies weren't PERFECT but I just don't see this being better. They're not gonna beat the original cast

Give me a good reason why Ben Barnes shouldn't play Sirius Black.

>>212871513
Feinnes was too hammy, Smith is kinda ugly. Cillian looks handsome enough to have once been Tom Riddle

Jared Harris

Matt Smith, if only because Cillian deserve better

>>212870896
I predict that there will be a scene where Voldemort kills a bunch of KKK members and then says something snarky about them being the master race.

>Who is /tv/ backing?

>>212869319 (OP)
Smith would play a better Voldeh and could probably get around HotD scheduling since he wouldn't need to do that much until years into the show

>>212870733
It probably wouldn’t be a 8 year commitment in reality, he’d have some lite voiceover work in the first season, and wouldn’t actualy have to appear until the end of the Goblet of Fire season and even then it wouldn’t be a whole bunch of scenes

>>212872977
>he wouldn't need to do that much until years into the show
They'll shoehorn in more dream sequences to keep him in because no one is interested in any of the fenale characters at this point.
